Product Description
You have never seen anything that compares to the M48 Cyclone Fixed Blade Knife! The 8” cast stainless steel blade has been crafted into a spiraling masterpiece of design, using temperatures up to 1,030 degrees, which gives it a 48HC. The three spiraling cutting edges come down to an incredibly sharp piercing point. As with all M48 knives, the glass-fiber-reinforced nylon handle gives you a strong and secure grip. The Cyclone also features a solid stainless steel hand guard and skull crusher pommel. The blade slides into a custom Vortec belt sheath that fits like a glove and is virtually indestructible. The fixed blade is 13 1/2” in overall length.
This is almost identical to the Legendary spiral knife from Dead Island 2. The Blood Rage knife looks very similar to the M48 cyclone except the handle is slightly different.

Zombie Go Boom sent me
Ok why lie. The moment Zombie go boom had a segment using this knife. I knew I had to get one. So Happy Birthday to me. It's rugged, pointy sharp and looks like it can do alot of damage.

First of my set. Still my favorite
With some work on the blades swiping is good. Lethal piercing if you can drive. I have purchased duplicates of this series. Looking forward to see what comes next.

I love this tool!
It's no Texas screwdriver, i.e. - its not a utility 'knife'. I call it my 'death spike'. Better to have and not need, than need and not have... If I ever use it, it will be righteous. I just pity the fool's wound cavity... Bad life choices... P.S. - I am 52, an Army Paratrooper Veteran, and a former Texas lawman. Cheers Brothers and Sisters!

M48 CYCLONE
IT IS BIG AND HEFTY, AND THE POINT WILL GET THE JOB DONE IF NEEDED. "PROBLEM" THE SHEATH DOES NOT FIT WELL, THE KNIFE RATTLES AROUND IN THE PLASTIC SHEATH, ALSO THE RETAINING STRAP COULD BE BEEFIER. OTHERWISE ITS AN AWSOME DANGEROUS KNIFE. MIGHT BE BANNED IN SOME STATE AND CITIES. LUCKILY, NOT MINE.

hand guard
i was too chicken to mess with mine without a hand guard, to keep my hand from sliding down onto the blade accidentally. had a friend at mcs d'zines put one on for me. now i feel confident about using this blade to the hilt. awesome knife!

This knife is very sharp out of the box. While examining the handle it slipped and the point went into the side of my hand from a drop of one inch. I won't do that again. It's a great knife and worthy of respect. Thanks BudK! LJP

Let me just say...
M48 is one of the best quality brands for weaponry, ive never seen such high end weapons for such cheap prices. In all fairness each M48 item is worth $100 more dollars than it should be.
Jordan Melvin Jun 30, 2017 (5 out of 5)
Sweet Knife!!!
This is definitely one of my favorite knifes! It's a lot heavier than I thought but that's a good thing. The case is what I was expecting and it's good for what I wanted it for. Sharp blade and point. The point on the bottom is great as well. I can't wait to make all of my friends jealous of this Knife! Definitely Recommend It!!!

Fantastic blade
I just got my cyclone and it is everything and more than I expected. The point is extremely sharp and the blade makes an incredibly clean triangular hole. There is a little plastic tube like pice that comes with the cyclone that goes into the bottom of the sheath that helps keep the knife snug while in the sheath.

Beautiful knife
Everything about this knife is amazing, and down right terrifying. Definitely can not be carried but a great addition for anyone who loves crazy knives.

This knife is beast. I highly recommend it to all serious weapon collectors.

BAD ASS!
Just received my cyclone in the mail today. I've been excitedly waiting since I ordered it. It was not misplaced excitement. That's all a can say is you have to hold one to understand. I never held some other, more expensive likenesses but this one is worth every penny

Wicked
This thing is so scary and wicked out of the box. Honestly not practical for any kind of carry and not legal to carry at least in Texas. But show this to any threatening dirt bag if they are smart they would run for their lives. It reminds me of one of those old fashioned lawn mowers with the rotating cutting blades in the front. To be gutted with this thing would likely be fatal and the twisting blades would be a surgeons nightmare!! Just the sight of this thing should send someone running. Also the skull crusher on the pommel would be devastating and with enough force, it might actually penetrate the skull!! This thing is so wicked scary it makes my cold steel hand and a half dagger look kinda whimpy. I look at it, get scared, put it back in the sheath only to repeat the cycle again!!! Gosh this thing is evil wicked!! The sheath is not so bad, get one and a wicked smile will overcome your face!

Outstanding!
I just received the M48 Cyclone yesterday, and I am blown away by how well made this knife is.
Maxwell Myers Feb 12, 2017 (5 out of 5)
Ordered the Cyclone 2/9/2017 and was delivered by noon 2/10/2017. Of course I live only 4 hours away from the warehouse. Over the last few years I have ordered a handful knives from BudK and always pleased with their service.

Glorious!
This item was bigger than I expected, but I loved it the moment I saw and held it! Absolutely fantastic and arrived in a week! Well worth the money! M48 Never disappoints! Highly recommend this item!

Great knife but....
This is a great knife that is definitely well designed and seems very durable so I have no complaints on the quality of the blade however, the sheath needs some attention. The knife is very loose and could very easily come out of the sheath. The flimsy Velcro strap does not hold the knife in place very well at all and will only get worse in time with use and within a few years will be worthless unless modifications are made by the buyer. This sheath should have a locking feature whether it screws in, snugly clips into, or a lock similar to some of the pistol holsters on the market where you push the button on the side and draw. Other than that, I have no complaints on the knife itself, just the sheath....
